is it possible to have a model be belong to itself?

say i have a category, and the category can be a subcategory of another
category (or it might be a parent category)..

is this possible, and does it make sense?

something like:

class Category < ActiveRecord::Base
   has_many: categories
end

i kinda think it would make more sense to use a subcategory model.. but
the system i am deriving from (which was written in php) is combining
the models..

thanks!
